My potting table is disintegrating. I should have sanded and stained it again after a few years. I want to say that I originally purchased this table from Ikea. This was back in 2009, so my memory is a little fuzzy. I do remember standing in the garage, staining all the pieces before assembling the table. ...

I typically attend workshops on my own, but given that hubby has an interest in bread making, I signed us both up for a sourdough bread making workshop hosted by West End Food Co-op. It costs $60 for non-members, or $55 for members. The $5 membership is a one-time fee, and it allows you to ...

Hubs has been made some sound improvements to the original 2016 memories video, and he's added some additional footage after the video ends. Check it out! And for the record, at 1:19, my comment is, "that's quite a bridge."

I am not ready for this adventure to end, but my job is expecting me back on Monday. In the beginning, I was wondering if seven weeks on the road would be too long and too exhausting, but seven weeks isn't enough time to see and do everything. I have felt rushed in ...

I happened to stumble upon some beautiful watercolour illustrations made by 37-year-old Snezhana Soosh.
Dad and daughter bonds are special. When I saw 10 of the Soosh paintings on the Upworthy site, it brought back so many memories of me as young girl.
Image #2 brought me back to when my dad taught me how to play chess. ...

I love taking photos. It's my way of capturing a memory, but it's not uncommon for me to take the picture and frown at the result. Sometimes the photo looks too dark, or maybe the image is blurred. Usually the issues can be resolved by changing the ISO, aperture, or exposure. ...

I love handbags and I will admit that I have a small collection of them. A girl can't have too many, right? Have you ever had that problem where you change wallets in a rush and forget to transfer something? When hubby was on the hunt for a new wallet, I came across this beauty ...
